Come to the “Fourth Anual Nature’s Open House Tour” and see 100+ custom built fairy & gnome dwellings set along a half mile stroll through wooded trails during fall foliage season. Also meet and greet award winning authors, Tracy Kane and Kelly Sanders, who will be reading and signing their award-winning books.
The tour involves the creative participation of several schools and other community organizations. Tour ticket proceeds benefit Elementary Schools & Trails Fund
Visit our permanent “Gnome and Fairy Village” for families and friends inspired to build their own houses, year-round. This tour was inspired by “The Fairy Houses Series®” of books by Tracy Kane and the amazing annual tours of “Fairy Houses in Portsmouth, NH.”
Enjoy a multi-generational family and community event celebrating nature awareness and literacy. We hope to inspire children and adults to experience the joy of reading and to interact with nature through building these unique habitats for fairies, gnomes and nature’s friends.
